Light-induced Changes of the Carotenoid Levels in Chloroplast Envelopes

The carotenoid content of thylakoids and envelopes isolated from dark-or light-treated spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.) chloroplasts was compared. In thylakoids, light induced a decrease of violaxanthin parallel with a stoichiometric increase of zeaxanthin due to violaxanthin deepoxidation. In envelop...
